Let's Find Out! Primary Sources
Primary source documents are some of the best resources we have to
understand the people, societies, and cultures of the past. This series
introduces young readers to the importance of primary sources
and illustrates how we can analyze them, what kinds of unique information
we can glean from them, and the immersive experience of history they can
provide. Focusing on a single primary source document, each title will explore
the historical events that gave rise to said document, explain exactly what is
being said, and describe how the document affected the historical landscape.
? Terminology is fully explained through vocabulary boxes and a
glossary
? ?Compare and Contrast? and ?Think About It? boxes encourage the
